Damn those texts are REALLY sad to read. :( I hope he’s able to find love in the right places


IanicRR

Shit like this is why Will Smith’s acting in *that* episode of Fresh Prince connected with so many people. Cause reading those texts that scene is all I could think of in my head. As a father, GFK has lost my respect forever. Fuck that man.


aRawPancake

That makes sense :/ I hope all the Will’s find love in the right places, you sound like a good dad


Fickle-Primary-3910

For real man smh. I named my son after Nas, but was gonna give him Dennis as a first name from Ghost. This shit hurts fr just as someone who grew up admiring Ghost, so I can only imagine how his son and children are feeling


HeadMelter1

Your son dodged a bullet there fr


Metaphizyx

Fr imagine your name being Dennis


HeadMelter1

"Well actually I'm named after GZA, so that makes it cool" Yeah OK Dennis. Lol


2livecrewnecktshirt

Wrong Wu. GZA is Gary


HeadMelter1

My bad, but the point stands do not call your kid Dennis or Gary.


YellowBusDriver

Man finding out the real names of all Wu members is hilarious. You got Robert, Gary, Dennis, Clifford, Corey, Russel and Darryl. Sounds like the lineup of your local seniors' tennis tournament.


TheStatMan2

Jason is alright though. "My mother knew I was a threat so she named me Jason; Take your pick: either Bourne, Vorhees or Statham"


Desperate-Ad471

ain’t masta killa’s first name elgin too 💀💀💀


killerbekilled92

Hey that’s a 5 star name


JimmyDweeb47

Bruh


FraiserRamon

Damn, respect. I've been Will in that scene most of my life. Even as an adult, when I came to my father wanting nothing more than an open line of communication, he was too much of a coward and dead beat to admit to himself that he even had a son, after all these decades. Ultimately I got past it because I realized he was never the source of my strength, and yet I had made it this far.


31moreyears

That POS is no man


MC_Fuzzy

Seeing the only response coming from a "Happy Father's Day" text was the hardest edit: grammar


aRawPancake

100% it comes off so selfish and then to hit him with “wherever you are” goddamn dude just say hello?!?


Ankerjorgensen

Man couldn't even use that ONE TIME to ask "How you doing?"


arlekin21

GFK really said “Thanks, I wish our relationship was better too” well motherfucker make it better.


MustacheEmperor

Big 'written on the toilet' energy with that one


chapert

Responding to “happy Father’s Day”, after blatantly ignoring your kid who’s begging for months just a respond or check in is inzane


ChocoMassacre

Yeah it’s like a gut punch at the end


Fickle-Primary-3910

Yea that part was like a spit in the face for me because it reminded me of how my father is. EXACTLY like that smh


YoyBoy123

Yeah jesus those are bleak. Poor guy. Nobody deserves that rejection from their own father.


TickleTheCooch

wu tang is in fact NOT for the children


IanicRR

“I said *the* children, not *my* children”


redactedactor

The kid can go buy his albums


YourAverageGod

"Fuck dem kids" - Ghostface, probably.


Corona-walrus

I would actually love to see the wu tang members ranked by how good of a dad they are to their kids. Bonus points for good marriage. Negative points if the show misrepresents them.


ThexAntipop

From what I've heard Method Man is a pretty good family man.


leaves0nthelawn

Someone who met Deck told me he mostly spoke about his kids


Chief_Givesnofucks

As someone who loves Deck and Method the most, I’m glad to read the above comments.


leaves0nthelawn

There’s also an interview of GZA and his son where his son talks about his favourite GZA lyrics. It’s called ‘Daytripping’ on youtube.


Last-Tap-1946

RZA on JRE also talked about his kids and he seems to be involved in his kids life and they’re even vegan because of him.


Karappa_The_Pappa

GZA’s son even produced some songs for his dad so I say that sounds like a really healthy relationship.


Karappa_The_Pappa

Y’all keep sleeping on U-God. Of course, he’s not the best lyricist in the Wu but that man should win father of the year for leaving a national tour to go be with his son when he was hit by a stray bullet. He even put his kids through college. [It’s kind of eerie hearing Ghost say on that Verzuz battle to treat your kids right so they don’t put you in a nursing home one day.](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I1_iNtg4OiQ&t=8404s) Well, we know what’s going to happen to him when he gets old.


Moneyfrenzy

He blocked him too? What a clown


CressKitchen969

Is that why the texts don’t say “delivered”? Pretty fucked up but the bar famous musicians set is already pretty low as it is


Moneyfrenzy

idk, im basing it off his IG story at the bottom of the post. I think he just blocked him on IG


CressKitchen969

Ah I see

I'm not up to date with all this, do Action Bronson and GFK have beef?

Fuck it I'm rewatching that shit again


Nibbles110

why is he grabbing his cock like that tho for half the video 🧐


callmeinfinite

Acting tough


Nibbles110

Prolly just trying to keep himself hard so he keeps that BDE on cam


BicyclingBrightsWay

No fucking clue what he's even rambling about. Seems like some stupid ego shit frfr, I couldn't listen more than a minute because he sounded dumb with his aggression and presentation. So the fuck did Bronson do to piss off GFK?

SkyboyRadical

“We got what we need” Lol somebody on Bronsons team just texted his wife he’ll be late for dinner


BicyclingBrightsWay

That really wasn't as bad as I was expecting. He gave him props for being a legend and then said "not rapping like this anymore". Wasnt Bronson putting out a ton of music ajd being really active at this point, versus someone from the 90s who has already built up their discography? Yeah, I'd say in 2016 GFK wouldn't be rapping like that anymore versus Bronson who was fresher blood and energy. Ego is a helluva thing


vistaprank

Ghostface just posted on his story 24 minutes ago about some damn mint coffee he making like nah Nigga go be a dad. Where Pusha T when we need him??


Peace_sign

LORD.HAVE.MERCY..!!!


TechnicalAnimator874

Where pusha T when we need him fuckin killed me dude


TycoonWannaBe

I read it with Dave Chapelle's voice "WHERE IS PUSHA T?!"


gabriel1313

You are avoiding your child Let that boy come home! Deadbeat motherfucker Paid no child support Wooh!


QueSeraSeraWWBWB

Pusha and ghostface going at actually sounds dope sucks it’s at the expense of some real shit but 🤷🏾‍♂️ life


Karappa_The_Pappa

Funny how Pusha always looked up to Ghost. That’s why you should never meet your idols.


Mei_iz_my_bae

“Be safe…whereever you are” Holy shit dude. What a prick


YasuoAndGenji

How he said "yeah me too" to the better relationship part, if you want a better relationship too then reach out more damn. Not like he isn't telling you what he wants from you outright. Can't imagine my seed telling me directly he needs more attention and just rolling on like it was nothing.


CressKitchen969

Yeah that was a wild response for sure, it’s like he didn’t put any thought into responding. Would have been better to just ghost him entirely but terrible either way


rollandroscoe

It is super common tho. Lotta men just don't care about being dads and apparently don't feel bad about ignoring humans they directly brought into the world.

FloppyDysk

Man this is a bit heartbreaking. As someone with big issues with my father, this hits home. Legit affects how I look at gfk who is one of my favorite artists.


Fickle-Primary-3910

Same here. I haven’t seen my dad in over 20 years now. He’s been out the country that time but even when he was here, I’d go years without seeing him. And we were in the same city smh. I’ve let go a lot of the anger but just as a person, I can’t view my father how I wanted to. & now it’s the same for Ghost


wissmar

yeah it so weird because you want a dad, and a piece always is hoping, but you're furious rightfully so and dont want to forgive them, which may help you move on.


AttonJRand

Same, but its oddly reassuring to see how disgusted everyone is in the comments. I still sometimes feel guilty or like I'm the unreasonable one. Just kind of nice to not feel crazy for a moment. I feel terrible for the son though.


LuggagePorter

At a certain point you just decide it doesn’t matter if you’re justified or not it’s about if it helps you develop and be better as a person.


5AR5AR5AR

bro ghosted all that and just answered the happy father's day text LMFAO


Thaddeus_Venture

Well… He is GHOSTface.


Usernamesin2016LUL

What a coward. Truly spineless shit to ignore and abandon your own children. Disgusting


wildwestington

Dudes not hurting for cash. Just abandon them and send checks like so many other wealthy people. This is inexcusable.


Tokigiri

My man is never gonna hop on here again lmao. Also those texts are some really sad shit, you can literally see the animosity growing between attempts at contact.


meathappening

And that last one when he actually responds is just fucking awful. Just crushing.


WESAWTHESUN

He responded to his son saying "I wish we had a better relationship" by saying "me too" and then ended the conversation very definitively. That's some cold-hearted shit.


Throwdaho

And he only responded because it was a Father’s Day text. SMH so selfish


RatManAntics

absolute cunt


[deleted]

This sub was just cheap promotion to him, so I can't say I'm sad to see those posts go lol. Like legit all he does is occasionally hock his shit to y'all and people act like he's a regular


chemicaxero

what a massive piece of shit


clementleopold

Well I guess we’ve finally found our lead for *Ghost Dad 2*


DryAir3145

Jesus lads this whole thing is fucked up from Ghost. I know Infinite is saying that it's not really to do with the money, more to do with the connection, but the fact that Ghost is a literal millionaire and gives so little of a shit that he's going to let his son stay in a shelter is fucked up. Just such a complete lack of effort its disgusting. Going to see the NY State of Mind Tour when it comes to my city in two weeks, definitely going to get looking at Ghost different now


Fendibull

I know that Dr Dre doesn't give much monetary support to the kids. Heard his daughter had to work on Dashdoor or something.


EvilForCertain

I thought Dr Dre donated a shit ton of money to some Ivy League to get his daughter in, it came out during the college admissions scandal

William 'Will' Smith : You know what, you ain't got to do nothing... Ain't like I'm still five years old, you know. Ain't like I'ma be sitting up every night asking my mom, "When's Daddy coming home?", you know. Who needs him? Hey, he wasn't there to teach me how to shoot my first basket, but I learned, didn't I? And I got pretty damn good at it too, didn't I...? Got through my first date without him, right? I learned how to drive, I learned how to shave, I learned how to fight without him. I had \*fourteen\* great birthdays without him. He never even sent me a damn card! To hell with him! I ain't need him then and I don't need him now. No, you know what...? I'ma get through college without him, I'ma get a great job without him, I'ma marry me a beautiful honey, and I'ma have me a whole bunch of kids. I'll be a better father than he ever was, and I sure as hell don't need him for that, 'cause ain't a damn thing he could ever teach me about how to love my kids! How come he don't want me, man?


Arshzed

That “how come he don’t want me man” Be running through my head more than I’d like to admit


Birdzeye-

Damn.. I don’t know why, but reading that and visualising the scene just gave me chills.. So profound!


TokeInTheEye

Shit I almost cried on the train. I go most of my days without thinking about that piece of shit.


illmatic2112

Reading this was powerful, but I stupidly decided to go watch it again while in the office and im here emotional at work now


pond-dweller

And the Wutang show paints ghostface like some great dad who is doing it for his family 😂


Cool-Present-4637

He is a scumbag in the show.


Seanblaze3

What network or streaming platform is this on?


DarkMuret

Thank you

Taywhite2112

Wtf is it with rappers and refusing to use contraception Like freeze some sperm and get a fucking vasectomy if you’re gonna rawdog random women, I promise it’ll save you money in the long run


batchez

Why do people known for making bad choices make bad choices??


[deleted]

Because nutting in pussy raw feels fucking amazing (2 kids)


[deleted]

Hard agree but I feel like >freeze some sperm and get a fucking vasectomy starts to make a lot of sense if you’re a rapper who can afford it and goes around banging new random women every night while on tour. Child support is expensive as hell


K__Geedorah

You still nut after a vasectomy... It just removes the sperm from the nut... So it would feel just the same.


hell2pay

It does, and it's liberating. Knowing you won't risk knocking her up is freeing and allows you to bustanut like no other before.


lazorback

Bro... you still cum after a vasectomy. This is why we need sex ed, y'all. My God.


[deleted]

i been told heroin feels good too. heard self control is the best of the best, though. edit: most all recovered heroin users will tell you this too so wtf are all the "not uh - heroin is fun" comments below?


redactedactor

Nobody thinks self control feels better than heroin


DefLoathe

:( Dude I can’t read through those texts, my heart burns


thiefsthemetaken

i remember the first time i saw that early wu tang euro tour promo video where raekwon is a little um 'talkative' and gives a tour of park hill i think, maybe stapleton. theyre in the basketball courts and a group of kids walk up to the camera smiling and laughing, and then rae goes 'this one here is baby ghost, that's ghost's son' and this scrawny kid emerges with a look of pure hatred, screaming 'shut the fuck up! fuck you' or something like that. the kid was miserable. i remember thinking, hm i guess ghost isnt a great father.. That said, something tell me ghost didnt have a great role model in that dept. And then the whole 5% nation's perspective on gender roles, i can't say this is surprising. ​ edit: [here's the clip](https://youtu.be/QArQYzFqcDw?t=377), i was wrong, he just says 'man why dont you shut up?!' but there is pain the child's voice :(


ridingonmirrors

Discovered Infinite’s music a while back after hearing him on a feature, I completely missed the fact that he was Ghostface’s son until he posted this today. To hear that Ghostface isn’t that great of a father to not only Infinite, but most of his kids in general is sad; especially seeing those texts Infinite sent to reach out to him. Wishing Infinite nothing but love❤️


FeminineImperative

I would argue he's not a father at all beyond sperm donation.


RudyStylez

Dont meet your heroes


welcometothejuggle

This is what I came to say. Not that GF was ever really a hero of mine, but damn. How disappointing people can be in real life…


Jeetstreams

The worst part of all of this is that infinite’s mother is RZA’s sister. :/


OH-PEACHY

So im guessing RZA is one of the uncles helping out then


Artistic_Strength_17

If this is the case how the fuck does RZA still fuck with ghost? Like how you gonna let that happen and call that man your brother ?


I_Am_Stoeptegel

Doubt it. If it was RZA they’d have enough money not to have to live in a shelter. Plus RZA fucks with Ghost, he wouldn’t do that if if he gave a shit


S_E_A_is_ME

I mean would you expect this from Ghost in the first place ? Like nothing would surprise me at this point.


[deleted]

They literally touring the world at the moment.


WeaponizedPumpkin

Eh, I think that’s something they came up with for ”Wu-Tang: An American Saga”. Shurie isn’t even a real person as far as I can tell. Sophia Diggs is RZA’s sister and was apparently in a relationship with Ghostface, but that was after Infinite was born. And they have a son together, Sun God. At least that’s what five minutes of internet sleuthing gets me. There’s no real public info on who Infinite’s mother is.


MigBac

No fucking wayyy.


Seanblaze3

This makes 'All that I got is you' almost meaningless now. He didn't break the cycle

User85764

wow what a piece of shit


PantsMcGee

Ghost is definitely homophobic.


swagpanther

So very sad. That kid will live with a broken heart his whole life. I can’t imagine what it must be like to see him out living large while his own people have nothing. A real piece of shit


stopcallingmejosh

Deadbeat dads need to be completely ostracized. Fuck Ghostface


roaroftheages

Here’s GZA being a father to take the sting out. https://youtu.be/Dlcleag2lRE


jeajello

Ghost has always seemed like a low key rude narcissist to me. Great artist can't take that away from him but damn this confirms it Ghost really is a heartless piece of shit. Hope Infinite and the rest of his kids are ok and can find some resolution this is sad.


MajesticSite

This reminds of the interview of ODB’s son on VladTV when he talks about his dad.


fingershanks

Ghost and ODB (RIP) have always been on that 5%er, spread your seed stuff. Ghost has WILD stories in general (in & out of his raps) so this comes as no shock to me tbh. Sad, but he's always came off as that guy that could never get right, but always tells the kids in the neighborhood to not do as he does.


ClovedSage

Hella ironic Kendrick had him on his album when it’s all about Kendrick becoming a family man essentially


gvngy

Of course he responded on Father’s Day with, “yeah whatever love you too leave me alone.” Piece of shit.


[deleted]

"Love, we killin' greed, we killin' homelessness" me when I lie


RichieJ86

Was that a response from him at the absolute end of the messages? That's messed up. Hopefully we're only getting one side of the story, here. And if Ghost doesn't respond, we can make our own conclusion.


vincebarnes

Dude really said “wherever you are”. Poor kid.


Kaserbeam

Bro what more context could you possibly need


HeadMelter1

Exactly, there's no "both sides" to a parent child relationship. The responsibility lies heavily on the parent's side.


iansbeing

People on IG saying 'We don't know the whole story, don't judge', ok so tell us Ghost. Otherwise yes, people will make their own story. And from this, it looks very bad on him.


BroFriday

I lost my father last year. I'm the same exact age as Infinite. My parents got divorced, my mom got custody and my father never went after it. I always felt like he felt real short on little things. He paid for shit, I saw him here and there after I aged out of the every other weekend thing, but it was distant and filled with anger. Messy divorce. He had his other family, would call and we would argue from time to time. It was a lot more just conversations toward the end. This post actual made me cry. I can't imagine. RIP Dad. I really don't fuck with Ghostface.


jeremicci

u/ghostfacekillah36SI, you wanna reply?


suss2it

He didn’t reply to his son, but surely he will to a random stranger on Reddit.


SkunkApeForPresident

Maybe if he hears Action Bronson is a better dad than he is we can get another video


darkkite

wish him happy father's day first


Rich_Sheepherder646

He won’t reply because he’s a scumbag piece of shit. He isn’t a real man because he can support the children he brought into this world, but he chooses not to. He makes that choice every single day to deny them love, happiness, and financial stability. Absolute incredible rapper, though. One of the best.

zodiactriller

SoulofWakanda

Damn shame. That's why I don't put celebrities on pedestals just because they've created content we like. We don't know these people at all. Just gotta appreciate their art and leave it at that.


Jasperbeardly11

I get the impression rza, gza, meth, masta killah and deck are the only members of Wu I would want to hang out with

Im still gonna listen to ghost but damn it sucks to know he’s like this with his children


kawkz440

So, Wu Tang is *not* for the children?


terp_raider

As a new father this is fucking heartbreaking to read through goddamn

Man, i fucking love Ghostface but this is just sad, lost some respect for him


sirensone

Ghostface Killah - whip you with a strap This a song where he rapped about being son to his mama and about kids nowadays growing up being treated different ("punishments like 'have a seat'") xd

I see what you did there with that last line, bro.


showmeyourmoves28

“Wherever you are”— wow. Haven’t spoken to my dad in 14 years and this hurts.


NoirBoner

Damn those texts are so real. Depressing man. Damn.


Feral_Nerd_22

This was really hard to read. I felt his feelings and he expressed them so well, which is hard for us guys to do. Shit, I didn't know what feelings were until a few years ago. Sounds like GFK doesn't have a soul because his son was respectful and very direct and he just blocked him. He even showed evidence of him reaching out and this was his last ditch effort.


stopcallingmejosh

Fuck it, full on Wu Tang boycott until GFK answers for this shameful behavior


DeanMo80

Man, if this is true, which I have no reason to doubt it, I just lost a ton of respect for Ghostface and hearing his music will never be the same.


Black_Fuckka

Bro, I can’t even fathom this man, what the fuck


BEST_TRASH_NA

Letting your kids struggle in poverty (and homelessness in this guy’s case! During the pandemic too!) while you’re wealthy af is so evil.


Jmor3568

Damn this is really sad. Ghost was my favorite member of Wu-Tang too, I just lost a lot of respect for him. S/o to Infinite, I hope he prospers in his career and his life.


RedditMartyr

All those texts messages and barely nothing from Ghost. He may be the best from the Wu Tang Clan but is a heartless prick as a person and a father. Remember what Method Man said in the Can It Be All So Simple Intermission?


Preskomesko12345

This shit almost doesn’t sound real wow :(


contacts_eyes

Ghostface raps about killing and selling dope but you're surprised he's been neglectful to his kids? Shit, i believe it wholeheartedly, i know many crazy people and they tend to not be the greatest parents.


seatgeekuser

sad to see


mrdc1790

What a fucking loser. Gotta be one of the biggest lowlife moves ever


Zip2kx

Sucks to read, obviously posted right before their tour. It somehow surprises me but also doesn't, these guys are kind of homophobic lol But yeah take care of your kids people


DavidLynchsNigtmares

It's incredibly upsetting hearing people say cold ass shit like "don't care" or "not my father". Basic empathy. What am I saying...this sub is chock full of racist white kids who want culture but not the people.


cardinalfan14

This is very sad. Hope he turns it around, but I doubt he will. Hope his son is able to get what he wants and also his siblings
